If you’re not looking for a parking spot in Philly, you’re talking about how hard it is to find one, or you’re busy hogging a bike lane or crosswalk. Even when there’s no parking news, there’s something to talk about.

But 2017 gave us a lot of parking news — from the failed lawsuit to end parking in the South Broad Street median, to the demise and return of meterUP, to the patronage extravaganza that is the Philadelphia Parking Authority.

Every week since May, Billy Penn’s been keeping tabs on all things parking. And our favorite part of our “Week in Parking” posts is the tweets (and the occasional Instagram or Reddit photo). Because for every article about a giant PPA pension, there’s a ticket on a UPS truck waiting to be photographed.

Here are the best parking tweets, photos and videos from 2017.

DYK the Navy SEALs practice parking in Wissinoming?

Evidence of the PPA’s absolute power

I don't even have a car and the parking authority walking around makes me nervous that I'm gonna get a ticket

Men.

It really annoys me when men try to direct my parking. Do y’all do that to each other or just women. I know when to turn the wheel, bruh.

Those who can’t, heckle

I never knew true humiliation until I whiffed a parallel parking spot in front of a pack of heckling teenagers…twice.

Does it even count as double parking when there are so many open spots?

She cracked the parallel parking code

The trick to perfect parallel parking is to not care what happens to your car, any other car, any pedestrians walking by, or the curb.

Watch drivers find out they just parked on the most ticketed block in Philly

July

When your priorities are definitely right

Imagine if this country cared half as much about healthcare being a right as much as South Philly cares about illegal parking being a right.

Watch this driver spend 3 minutes parking the biggest spot ever

Best parking strategy ever

Parking in Philly is so tough that sometimes I'll just park first and then figure out where to go.
